Designing EUscreen [DISH2011]

The core aim of the EUscreen project is to develop a highly interoperable platform that allows the multicultural and multilingual exploration of European television content and metadata from 20 EU member states, integrated into and harmonized with Europeana. The EUscreen portal (http://www.euscreen.eu) will make publicly available a wide collection of >30.000 items of television programming of the consortium content providers throughout Europe. EUscreen is a Best Practice Network and funded by eContentPlus programme of the European Commission.

During Dish2009, EUscreen was also part of the programme with a presentation about Open video and enabling open cultural productions within the project. This presentation was mainly based on our initial ideas about open cultural productions. Now, two years later, we propose to present the results so far and to share our experiences and lessons learned, not only about open cultural experiences, but from a broader perspective: the design of a public participation platform for various creative use activities.

The presentation focuses on combining policy-driven and user-driven aspects, and discusses how to incorporate them in the design of a public participation platform like EUscreen. The EUscreen portal aims to offer digital tools for multiple uses and creative activities of identified user groups: education and research, cultural heritage institutions, media professionals and the general public. In many cases these solutions require special agreements and granting specific rights for the portal users. In order for EUscreen to design and provide functionalities that enable not only viewing the content through the portal, but also e.g. sharing and enriching the video content, it is necessary to understand what requirements and consequences the EUscreen video collection sets for the portal in practice. The audiovisual content offered by EUscreen's Content Providers have very different restrictions and permissions, therefore the design of the portal should take this into account and provide flexible, easy-to-understand tools for creative activities that can accommodate for the variation in the content IPR.

Through the EUscreen case, this presentation aims to discuss the challenges and opportunities to design a public participation platform for various creative use activities, and puts special attention to discuss the chosen strategies and approach taken.
